Definitions
- the present invention relates to a novel method of synthesizing pyrrole-imidazole polyamide which is being noted as a useful compound for controlling a gene expression as a result of recent active researches which have clarified that the compound can be combined with a DNA in a sequence-specific manner.
- the present inventors have focused and have been studying on distamycin, an antibiotic, which is known to selectively bond to a site of a DNA abundant with AT base pairs.
- the inventors have synthesized systematic distamycin derivatives by combining a pyrrole amide which is a constituent unit of distamycin and an imidazole amide which is a derivative of the pyrrole amide and has been conducting biochemical researches on the thus-obtained compounds.
- the inventors have clarified that each of the compounds is capable of selectively bonding with a specific site of DNA and the selectivity is defined by an order of pyrrole amide (Py) and imidazole amide (Im).
- the inventors have found a systematic screening method for conducting a cytotoxicity test on the known cancer cells by using the synthesized pyrrole-imidazole polyamides.
- This method is a simultaneous and easy screening method of the compounds targeting on DNA sequence specific to a certain cancer cell, which DNA sequence is being clarified in the human genome project.
- the number of pyrrole-imidazole amides, which are the constituent units is 8, there are 256 combinations.
- By screening those compounds simultaneously it is possible to systematically select cytotoxic compounds.
- the system is innovative since it enables to derive a useful substance which uniquely suits a target gene from the DNA selective compounds (pyrrole-imidazole polyamides) of a countless combinations.
- the present inventors have already filed a patent application of the invention (JP-A-2001-136974).
- the method has a difficulty in synthesizing a polyamide having a carboxyl group at its end and is poor in efficiency in excising the end from the solid phase as a carboxylic acid residue, it is difficult to impart a new reactivity to the obtained long chain pyrrole-imidazole polyamide by direct modification.
- the present invention has been accomplished in view of the above-described circumstances, and an object of the invention is to provide a method of producing a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide, whereby a longer pyrrole-imidazole polyamide can be conveniently synthesized and a protein (peptide) can be easily transferred; the method enables to efficiently produce a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide having a carboxylic acid residue at its end which can be excised from a solid phase carrier, making it possible to directly transfer various functional groups thereinto, and capable of exactly distinguishing DNA sequences.
- the present invention provides a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide synthesis method characterized by performing automatic synthesis by the solid phase Fmoc method with the use of a peptide synthesizer.
- the present invention provides a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide having a carboxyl group at its end.
- the present invention provides a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide obtainable by transferring a DNA alkylation agent into the carboxyl group at the end of the above pyrrole-imidazole polyamide.

- FITC fluorescein isothiocyanate
- duocarmycin for example, it is possible to transfer duocarmycin, pyrrolo-benzodiazepin, bleomycin enediyne compounds, nitrogen mustard, and their derivatives, all having the DNA alkylation ability.
- the method is the automatic synthesis using a commercially available protein (peptide) synthesizer, it is the synthesis method which enables a synthesis of a conjugate of a natural protein and a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide and a conjugate of a non-natural protein and a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide by automatic synthesis method.
- reaction conditions of the Fmoc method are less strict than those of the t-BOC method, it is possible to transfer organic compounds, in addition to proteins, having a functional group which becomes unstable under the acidic condition and, therefore, the invention has a wider range of applicability.
- the conventional liquid phase method for example, is not appropriate for synthesizing a different type, and the t-BOC method has a difficulty in synthesizing a long chain pyrrole-imidazole polyamide due to its strict reaction conditions as compared with those of the Fmoc method and is poor in applicability. Further, since the t-BOC method does not use any commercially available protein synthesizer, it also has a difficulty in transferring protein. Moreover, since the t-BOC method has a difficulty in excising the end from the solid phase as a carboxylic acid residue, it is difficult to impart a new reactivity to the obtained long chain pyrrole-imidazole polyamide by direct modification.
- the synthesis of polypyrrole by the Fmoc method also has a problem of failing to exactly distinguishing DNA sequences, which is caused because an imidazole is not transferred into a DNA with the method; however, the method developed by the present inventors is an innovative method which solves all of the above problems.

- this compound alkylated the DNA with the hairpin structure in accordance with one rule. More specifically, a ⁇ -butyl hairpin curve portion recognized AT, a Py-Py pair recognized At or TA, and Du86 alkylated A or G.
- the new molecular recognition pair ⁇ -alanine pair-Im pair selectively recognized a CG pair to reveal that it contributes significantly to the sequence-specific alkylation, which is the new discovery that have never been reported.
- the synthesis was performed in the same manner as in the above-described solid phase synthesis of pyrrole-imidazole polyamide, i.e., by using Pioneer (product of Applied Biosystems) which is the peptide synthesizer employing the Continuous Flow Method.
- Used as a solid phase carrier was a commercially available Wang resin to which Fmoc- ⁇ -alanine is preloaded.
- Four equivalent amounts of each of HATU, DIEA, FITC and the monomer units are used with respect to an active end of the solid phase carrier.
- the solid phase carrier was taken out from the column to be subjected to a drying under reduced pressure and then moved to a 50 ml curved flask.
- a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide since it is possible to excise the end from a solid phase carrier as a carboxylic acid residue, various functional groups can be transferred into a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide. For example, it is possible to transfer duocarmycin, pyrrolo-benzodiazepin, bleomycine enediyne compounds, nitrogen mustard, and their derivatives, all having the DNA alkylation ability. In short, a compound which alkylates a DNA in a sequence-specific manner can readily be obtained by the method of the present invention. According to this technique, a progress in developments of drugs targeting DNAs specific to cancer cells, i.e., developments of anti-cancer drugs with less adverse side effects is greatly expected.
- the present invention it is possible to synthesize a conjugate of a natural protein and a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide as well as a conjugate of a non-natural protein and a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide. Yet further, since the reaction conditions of the Fmoc method are less strict than those of the t-BOC method, it is possible to transfer organic compounds, in addition to the proteins, having a functional group which becomes unstable under a acidic condition and, therefore, the invention has a wider range of applicability. For example, it is possible to automatically synthesize the conjugates of a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide and DNA, RNA, or a derivative thereof.
- conjugate by transferring FITC into a pyrrole-imidazole polyamide, and the conjugate to be obtained is usable as a fluorescent labeling reagent capable of recognizing a specific DNA sequence such as a DNA sequence relating to a genetic disease such as cancer.
- conjugate can be used not only in a stage preceding a treatment with the pyrrole-imidazole polyamide, but also as a diagnostic drug.
